Homeade lift

[86HatchShelby]

Its time for the 1986 EA81 Hatch to have a growth spurt of what Im thinkin 3-4"

I am not really "retarded" when it comes to this, just not really experienced

 

Would like step by step detailed instructions for my dad and I to follow to get this done as easy and as fast as possible.

 

thanks ahead of time

The front struts are offset 22 degrees, they go in towards the car. Like this

\ engine /.

 

Probably will need longer brake lines, it's pretty simple. PM me for more info,

I've made 2 4" lifts for my rigs the hardest part is the strut blocks. Scott in bellingham made a set for me on my second lift.He used channel Iron for them. I don't have a pic, but scott may have one, They are the way to go.
